MrVic: cool drawing lordlothair
One the hardest things to watch out for is tank width. WW2 Europe roads were narrow cities even more so. That combined with dificutly trasporting on railroads and clearing tunnels is really hard. More modern tanks like the leopard 2, challenger, abrams all use a large chassis. Those tanks would have great issue in WW2 in just travel. Moving up a road they would block the whole road in most cases really screwing up the flow of supplies and logistics. This has created a big challenge for us.
side note:
WMD saw you mention 1944 tech, figure you know we were based off 1940 tech (makes it a good challenge) just didn't want anyone to get confused and create a disqualified submission in these last few days
pretty much takes most anything above a pak 40 and the 17pdr is out also this early in the war as it seems it was not even in concept till after 1940. which creates some fun design challenges.
Hope to see a lot more tanks towards the end. Figure they will be great since the framework is kinda set in place now!
